    For those who don't know who the director Wally Pfister is, he is best known as the cinematographer for Christopher Nolan. His works as cinematographer include the Dark Knight trilogy, Inception (for which he won the Academy Award for Best Cinematography), Memento, Insomnia, The Prestige, The Italian Job, Moneyball, and more.

    I assumed this movie was going to be bad based on the plot but uh, wow.

    Even if this movie bombs it will be good fun to watch. Depps' make up reminds me slightly of the Jamie Lee Curtis bomb "Virus" from back in the 90's.
    It's nice to know that film makers have not forgotten their roots.

    Why are people not excited about this? Trailer alone looked impressive, but that resume makes me even more excited!

    Didn't see anything for this one yet, new Johnny Depp movie. Looks pretty decent, seen this trailer when I went to see new 300 today.



    Oh yeah, Morgan Freeman & Kate Mara too!
